SMARTFORMS-maximum length of text to be printed

Hi all,

Recently I have encountered the following issue in Smartforms.

I have a text of 450-500 characters stored in a char 1000 variable. The smartform in which this text is printed consists of only one window and the variable name is given in the text element window. The problem is that the text is cut at exactly 255 characters.

So the text is only partially visible at the output. Is there some sort of a setting by which the length of text visible at the output can be extended? Or any other solution?
